Ryan Craig is at Scotiabank Place
He’s taking warmups with the team, as per Erik Erlendsson’s report on twitter. No word if he’ll be playing yet.

Cool, even comes with pictures now.
Hockey related question; Looking to see if the WHL site will stream ok for my location and was wondering if anyone knows of any good WHL games / matchups worth watching? (as I know nothing about thet teams playing).
WHL? I can ask around. I haven’t watch the Dub in a long, long time, tho.

Am reading but don’t have much to comment on. Currently wondering how the first few minutes seemed good and now Ottawa has twice as many shots as us (at least on the livescore I am following).
They've played a lot in their own end
The Tanguay goal was luck from working the rebounds. But most of the game the senators have been outplaying the Bolts.

Sort of disjointed at the end of the period
The difference between the first period tonight and the first period on October 15th? Niitty.
To strive, to seek, to find, and to forever keep it Raw. Raw Charge.
Nitty is clutch
Couldn’t they have rushed Broduer in the SO and tried a spin-o-rama or a dangle or something? Stammer should’ve known he wasn’t going to get an angle. Broduer is the Dean of the stand-up.
i like #41
but i was hoping he wouldn’t start tonight.
niity is getting the job done. no drama.

And lets be frank (no pun intended)
He’s stable in net. Mike’s reminding me of John Grahame right now when he plays — I’m perpetually on edge and cannot be confident that he’ll make the routine stops. He commits early and leaves things open — that or he blows a routine save.
I like Mike as a character — but his game is off. I’ve got no remedy but it’s just off…

Alrighty. Shots were 14-7 Ottawa. Surprisingly, those seven Lightning shots were well-distributed across the team – seven players, seven shots. Overall, the team’s faceoffs are good; winning 54%. Halpern is 5-1 (83%), while Lecavalier is 1-3 (25%). Meszaros has two hits, Hedman has two blocked shots, and Vinny has three missed shots. Interestingly balanced stats across the team. Usually, one or two players are dominant.

Let’s see…Stamkos has three shots while Vinny and Veilleux have two each. The Sens are still outshooting the Bolts, now 20-13. Konopka’s a beast in the faceoff circle, having won 4-1 (80%); and Halpern’s at 8-5 for 62%. Veilleux and Meszaros each have three hits, Ohlund has three blocked shots, and Lecavalier has four missed shots.
The score’s 2-2 after two. Tampa Bay’s 2-5 on the PP, while Ottawa’s 1-4.

One period to go. Any predictions / feelings about the game?
Can Nitty stop another 12 odd shots in a row?
Can #4 score?
Are we going to start shooting the much more than once every 2-3 minutes?
I am really hoping we can do it and it signals a turn-around from earlier in the season.
It’s a very winnable game, tho they’re going to have to figure out how they’re going to fill those 8+ minutes that Hedman would be playing. And I have total confidence in Niitty. Lecavalier might score, but that’s 50-50 chance right now. Hopefully it won’t go into OT!

Ohlund had to take it to stop the goal. At least this way they have a chance of not getting scored on. In theory.

Ottawa wins in OT 3-2.

Well, look at it this way
Dubbing in Ottawa on October 15, drubbing in Tampa last week… This one went to OT. Making progress?

Compared to the last time the Bolts were in Ottawa
We played better. Malone-Lecavalier-Tanguay is coming together slowly but coming together… But the D is not doing a good job clearing the zone.

I thought by going to OT we automatically get a point?

The defense needs some work. I thought that Lecavalier looked more confident – but, as a side note, he was playing as he has been playing; it’s just his attitude that was different. Same with Tanguay. And Niitty was stellar, as always.

OK, I'm planning on calling it a night on here
A moral victory? Those are over rated. But it was down to the wire…

Screw moral victories. Winning is the name of the game, and they didn’t do that. Better, but not quite good enough.

Thank you one and all, this has been more fun than sitting alone in a dark room reading blogs. ;-)
(but seriously, has been a pleasure and hope to be back lurking and asking silly questions for some other games)
You’re always welcome, Jonathan. Feel free to stop in at any time.
